An angsty, dark story about shifters. The story revolves around Rowdie a werejaguar and a visit from Tristan a former lover, and Roddie the son Rowdie never knew he had.



Tristan is a werecougar and tries to convince Rowdie to return home. But a terrible misunderstanding stands between them and Rowdie is very bitter and hardened. Roddie, the very young werejaguar son, tries to convince his father to return also.

Roddie was the most adorable character in this story. So innocent, naive and full of hope.

The story had lots of angst and Tristan did a lot of groveling, but I think he needs to do more considering what happened.

I'm really surprised that Rowdie agreed to return home so suddenly at the end of the story since he was full of bitterness toward Tristan when the two arrived. It sort of didn't ring very true to me since he was so hurt and angry. I think it was only because of Roddie that Rowdie returned home. The sudden decision to return home is the one part I had trouble with believing in this story. Other than that it was good.
